Immature Innocence vs. Mature Innocence
Briefly

Immature innocence is characterized by hyperbolic language. While children express excitement with exaggerated statements, adults may use hyperbole as a coping mechanism, transforming daily experiences into something extraordinary.
Childhood innocence represents a naivete that can hinder maturity, but a more mature form of innocence can enhance our emotional and cognitive development, allowing us to engage imaginatively with life.
